The Super Bowl is consistently the most-watched event of the year. The ability of the NFL to collect, access, protect, and share all the data generated at the game will play a pivotal role in event operations for Super Bowl XLVII. While millions around the world follow the action on the field, the NFL will work behind the scenes with NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP)—the official data storage provider of the NFL and Super Bowl XLVII—to provide continuous availability of critical game-day data.

“We are excited to team with NetApp to enhance our technology platform at the Super Bowl and beyond to help deliver the best experience for our fans, our broadcast partners, and the media,” said Michelle McKenna, NFL senior vice president and chief information officer. “As we look to work with companies that are leaders in technology, we are pleased to integrate NetApp® products and solutions across the League.”

Our strategic partner CommVault got some great news this week. In Gartner’s 2011 Magic Quadrant, they were designated as a ‘Leader’.

So, what does that mean exactly? Leaders are defined by Gartner as “companies that execute well against their current vision and are well positioned for tomorrow”. Truth is, we’ve been a private label service partner for CommVault and, quite frankly, we’re not surprised.

CommVault’s backup and recovery products and services are some of the best in the industry. The Simpana 9 suite is quickly becoming a market leader in data management and data protection. And being named a “Leader” in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant is sure to drive even more demand for CommVault’s products and services. And this means CommVault Consultants will also be in more demand than ever.

No worries – we’re ready.

Being designated a Leader raises an interesting question: how do companies accomplish that? It’s one thing to have a vision and set goals- both long-term and short-term- but it’s quite another thing to execute well in accomplishing them. For one thing, it requires that everyone understand the goals of the organization. Secondly, everyone has to be clear on the steps required to reach those goals. Most importantly, you have to have the right people in place to accomplish the tasks at hand.

Congrats to all our friends and colleagues at CommVault. In the meantime, we’re hiring!  So, don’t forget to check out our CommVault jobs here.
